Obama Campaign - All Techie and Web 2.0

Is his speech announcing his candidacy Saturday, Barak Obmama called for finally getting broadband into underserved population areas. He also decried the lack of computers in schools.
I think it’s just remarkable that in the speech announcing his candidacy, he talked about internet access. This was not a little speech made to a select group of geeky supporters.

It’s amazing how much of the public discourse is happening online. Our kids need to be part of that conversation. We’ve got to make sure they know how to use 2.0 type applications. If we’re not, we are not serving our students.
